PHYSICAL, MENTAL & EMO-TIONAL HEALING WITH PAST LIFE REGRESSION

M. Johnson

Past Life Regression offers huge op-portunities for healing on many levels. The more common forms of past life healing involve fear such as claustropho-bia from being buried alive, fear of water from drowning in a past life and fear of heights as a result of falling to your death from a high place. Notice these all have something in common besides fear, they result in the end of the life.

There are many other possibilities when it comes to past life trauma that can follow a person into their current life. Physical pain can be the result of some in-jury that may or may not have caused the past life death. Certain parts of the body can be sensitive or even seem to be in-������������������������������ ������as Irritable Bowel Syndrome, psoriasis or even asthma.

In this lecture we'll discuss various challenges that have been resolved in a single past life regression session. It is im-portant for the client to experience the past life for this type of healing to take place. Often just going through the experience is all the client needs. Though it's often up to the practitioner to connect the dots for the client and help them to understand the connection between the past life incident and their current life situation.

There are plenty of ways to heal the body, mind and soul. The more tools you have in your toolbox, the better off your clients will be. This interactive discussion will include case studies of sessions that ������� ��� ������ � ������ � ���� ��� �����regression clients and provided them with relief that had been eluding them their en-tire life.

GOOD & EVILD&J Chong

We are hopelessly deceived and cheated by Political Correctness, PC. The

term Evil is so distasteful that in the world of PC, you may not use it on another per-son. The offence that will be taken will be of thermonuclear proportions.

The result is that we are now blunted on the spot to speak the truth.

In life, what is NOT GOOD, in the reality of opposites of Good versus Evil, ��� ��� ��������� ��� ��"�#�$��� ��� ����midst, are oceans of NOT GOOD doings. To be unable to speak to the truth that these things and the persons who do them ������"������������������������������is to fail to tell the truth-as-it-is.

As we advance into the 21st Centu-ry the most critical thing is that we must speak the truth as required by the Philoso-phy and the Theology of Western Civili-�����#� �"����������%� ���%������������%�every utterance is not GOOD and hence it is Evil.

OVERCOMING THE TRIG-GERS OF ADDICTION

A. DeMarco

To combat addictions of every kind. To eliminate cravings, urges and obses-sions. To elevate, stimulate and motivate.

We are one ‘giant memory’ that reacts to many stimuli that we have witnessed, whether real or imagined, since birth and before. The passion, or the circumstanc-es, or the repetition with which any given stimulus is presented to us, dictates the ������ ������ � ��� ������� �������� ���please us, or empower us, or haunt us, or disturb us, or ‘attempt’ to destroy us. As ������%����������� �������� ���������������������������������������� ��fairly. The subconscious mind must be befriended, beseeched, commanded, and de-programmed and re-programmed with, among other hypnotic techniques, Pav-lovian-style triggers and Jungian symbols that counterbalance and overcome the old, learned, harmful stimuli. One of our goals ��������������������������#�

Tony shall offer his further insights into the workings of the subconscious mind and the collective unconscious, the elevation of consciousness, and teach sev-eral effective triggers that he uses in his practice and has been teaching practicing hypnotists for many years.

Tony is the author of a widely ac-claimed Addictions Practice Manual en-titled “Slaying the Dragon of Addiction” in which 13 actual sessions are set forth in detail as if the student is ‘taken by the hand’ through the entire process of attain-ing abstinence. The triggers that he teach-es are used not only to combat the crav-ings, urges, needs, desires, and obsessions of addictions and habit, but to give your clients the kick-start to get up, go out, grab life by the collar, and give it a good shak-ing.

THE 8 BEST WAYS TO EXER-CISE YOUR BRAIN

A. King

Current research proves the mind can indeed alter the physical structure of the brain and we can all change our brains by changing our thoughts and percep-tions. Sensory stimulus like sound/music,

light, vibration, motion and “learning” can “switch on” both genes and neural struc-tures.

Our mind can direct its own unique healing if we have the desire, commit-ment, and motivation to practice some simple techniques repetitiously. Based on research by Andrew Newberg, M.D. and Mark Waldman, you can create a healthier brain by incorporating these exercises into your work with clients, your own life, or sharing with friends.

HEALING FROM WITHINS. Drenner

This modality was developed for my own personal physical healing. As I tapped into my subconscious at a deeper level, I learned to bring forth practi-cals for my healing. This can be used for many types of healing - emotional, spiritual and physical. Your clients learn to trust the subconscious at a deep-er level as solutions come from within. You will gain a new therapy that brings solutions from the clients sub-conscious mind to aide their healing. All will be given scripts to use with cli-ents.

MANAGING SECOND HAND TRAUMAL. Bennett

Research indicates that caregivers are not immune to trauma and might experience compassion fatigue. Compassion fatigue is most common in the health care profes-sions. Often with compassion fatigue we lose interest in our own self-care and both we and our clients can suffer. During this talk you will learn the signs of compassion fatigue and ways to address this phenom-enon. “We have not been directly exposed to the trauma scene, but we hear the story told with such intensity, or we hear similar sto-ries so often, or we have the gift and curse of extreme empathy and we suffer. We feel the feelings of our clients. We experi-ence their fears. We dream their dreams. Eventually, we lose a certain spark of opti-

EMOTIONAL DIVORCE – WHAT IS IT AND

HOW DO I GET ONE?S. Gilbert

This technique combines hypnothera-py and the Gestalt Empty Chair technique. The relationship may be over, but if your client's subconscious hasn't let it go, they cannot move forward.

This technique creates the emotion-al separation and healing needed for your client to take their power back and create

a new life for themselves. It can also be used to help a client release the hold any old circumstances or even substances may have over their lives.

Attendees will be able to better sup-port their clients who need to change the control and power that an old relationship (or substance) has over their life.

This technique helps clients to create immediate change in their lives.

NEUROLOGICAL LEVELS AS A HYPNOTIC INDUCTION

A. Emrich

The neurological levels evolved through the work of pioneers in NLP ���� ������%� ���� �� �������� ��� ��work done by Gregory Bateson. Michael Watson has developed a powerful NLP protocol that includes his masterful work in "walking" interventions. I have contin-ued to apply the model to hypnotic work as a way of introducing an evolutionary change process to clients who want/need a longer-term framework for dealing more successfully with life changes and sur-prises. This workshop will introduce the model, provide time for Q&A, and also give participants a chance to experience the model as a group demonstration.

Attendees will gain a new tool for developing hypnotic interventions for clients who want/need a longer-term model to apply to life challenges for de-cades into the future.

THE MAJESTY ANDTHE MASTERY OF WORDS

M. Vallei

Shakespeare wrote, "What's in a name". Hypnotherapists must ask "What's in a Word". Words hold the keys to creat-ing a sense of openness, safety, personal-������%� �����%� ���� ����������� �����they are used masterfully when working with our clients. It is not enough to be care-ful in choosing words that are clear and positive in creating suggestions and other

messages. We need to become storytellers and wordsmiths.

WHY ORGANIC HYPNOSIS

D. Lane

As new hypnotists we are eager to learn every method available, read every script written and put our clients in trance

to create change. Over time we may wean ourselves off of the scripts or begin to write our own. Still we cling to the proto-cols we are taught. What if I tell you it is all just ritual? What if even trance is a ritual? I will encourage participants to work empathically, mixing and matching various methods. Listening to the cli-ent intuitively and then channeling the appropriate words will create a con-stant stream of successful outcomes. Automatic writing, cards, ink blots, what-ever tools make you feel most comfort-able are a good starting point for develop-

ing your intuitive listening skills. There is time spent communicating while limiting which senses are used, thereby enhancing all senses when combined in a session.

Participants will learn to forget rigid rules and go for successful outcomes with clients instead.
